Number Of Ingredients 10

Coarse salt
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest plus 2 tablespoons juice

OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST



Overnight French Toast image

If you have a crowd for breakfast, overnight French toast is a winning idea. Instead of standing over the stove, cooking slice after slice, it bakes in the oven and emerges puffed and golden and ready for a big glug of maple syrup. Try making it with a stale loaf that you forgot to eat amid all the other holiday goodies. A fat brioche, fruit-filled panettone or a braided challah all work well. Stay away from croissants, though: Their chewy interiors are best enjoyed fresh.

Categories     breakfast, breads, custards and puddings, main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for baking dish
1 pound enriched bread, such as brioche, challah or panettone sliced 3/4-inch thick
1/4 cup golden raisins (optional)
6 large eggs
2 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup pecans, chopped (optional)
Confectioners' sugar for dusting (optional)
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Butter a 2-quart baking dish. Butter the front sides of the slices of bread and shingle the slices upright in the dish, overlapping as necessary. Nestle the raisins evenly between the slices of bread but not on top.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and salt until well combined. Pour the milk mixture over the bread and press the bread gently to absorb. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Remove the plastic wrap. Sprinkle the pecans evenly over the top. Bake until puffed, golden and set in the center, 50 to 60 minutes. While baking, if the top begins to get too dark, tent with foil. Let stand 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve with maple syrup.

Tips:

  • Use day-old bread: This will help the bread to soak up the egg mixture more easily and evenly, resulting in a more flavorful and consistent French toast.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure to leave enough space between the slices of bread in the pan so that they can cook evenly. Overcrowding the pan will cause the bread to steam instead of fry, resulting in a soggy French toast.
  • Cook over medium heat: Cooking the French toast over medium heat will help to prevent it from burning. If the heat is too high, the outside of the bread will burn before the inside is cooked through.
  • Flip the French toast only once: Flipping the French toast too often will break it up and make it difficult to cook evenly. Flip the bread only once, when the bottom is golden brown and the top is starting to bubble.
  • Serve immediately: French toast is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to ensure that it is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

Conclusion:

Grand Marnier French toast is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special breakfast or brunch. By following the tips above, you can make sure that your French toast turns out perfect every time. So next time you're looking for a sweet and boozy treat, give Grand Marnier French toast a try!
